This is a public service announcement: with the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee nearing (hello four day weekend), it’s time to get planning that epic Jubilee party. Whether you are a royalist or not, with the warm weather (fingers crossed) and two extra days off, there has never been a better excuse for a big old celebration. And for that, friends, you need to know where to find the very best Platinum Jubilee decorations.
So, mark it in your diaries (Thursday 2nd June to Sunday 5th June) and get a list started immediately, detailing where to find the best jubilee party decorations on the market. The old saying, ‘fail to prepare then prepare to fail’ certainly applies in this instance, as getting orders in early is an absolute must, with shops expected to rapidly sell out of tableware and party decorations.
Be it a big street party or a more intimate gathering, we have an edit of all the best (read: grid-worthy) Queen’s Platinum Jubilee decorations, to make it one to remember. It’s time to substitute that plastic Union Jack bunting for some more stylish options, that will last you beyond the 5th June. And think of all that space saved in landfill.
Check out the gallery below for all of your jubilee party needs…
